How everyday people are meeting the moment.
The individual financial decision to buy an electric vehicle can be huge. However, in terms of climate action, it’s like giving a Tic-Tac to a whale with bad breath: Neither will make much of a dent in emissions. That comparison comes from a recent interview with Marion Gee, Climate Justice Alliance’s co-executive director.
In the interview, Gee and Just Solutions series host Gloria Neal talk about how overwhelming climate problems can seem, and how individuals can team up to be part of the solution. They also discuss the roles that businesses, governments, and philanthropies have to play in the just transition.
Climate Justice Alliance member groups include NY-based UPROSE, the Kali Akuno-led Cooperation Jackson in Mississippi, Chicago’s Little Village (LVEJO), the Micronesia Climate Change Alliance, and many more.
